Buck,
thanks for posting this. I always enjoy driving around the block in Hartford when I am passing through to see the old Factory on the edge of the river. Very interesting to read the details of the order. But even more interesting to see your work keeping the Story together along with the paperwork.
Its a Beautiful engraving job.
I hope you shoot at least 12 rounds through it to ensurefunction and its ability to maintain Order in your neck of the Woods.
As always thank you for your work to curate interesting examples of the gunmakers art and the history of the individuals that enjoyed using it.
Bob


I used to only shoot shotguns and rimfires, then I made the mistake of getting a subscription to handloader.......
